Ex Libris Releases Rosetta 2.0 Beta

BEST PRACTICES SERIES

Ex Libris Rosetta 2.0, the latest version of Ex Libris Group's digital preservation system, is currently undergoing beta testing at the National Library of New Zealand, with a scheduled release for all Rosetta customers this spring.

Rosetta 2.0 features a new, Open Archival Information System (OAIS)-compliant preservation planning module that helps institutions manage their archives and choose an appropriate file format. It also includes new safeguards against the deletion of content and a new permanent storage capacity that allows items on that disk to be restored at any time.
